Is there a difference between kosher salt and regular salt besides one is kosher? Can kosher salt do something regular salt cannot?
I never use table salt, I use kosher salt for cooking, fine sea salt for baking, and finishing salts for the finished dishes...
There's a pretty good explanation from wikipedia at:
Kosher salt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Off to "Google".
I have bought assorted Adjustable Grinders of Mediterranean Sea Salt, California Garlic&SeaSalt and Peppercorns from Homegoods too...for 4.99 vs 7.00-9.00...made by Olde Thompson. They're also disposable yet not cheaply made...and easy to manipulate. I bought their Adjustable Grinders of Mediterranean Sea Salt (coarse but adjustable), California Garlic & Sea Salt, and Pepper Supreme. I was just in World Market, in their food section (well, duh, as if I'd think you guyz might look in furniture dept.) and they had the same grinders there. I think Target may carry them too but call first....I use Himalayan Pink, French Grey, Australian Flake, Trapani Sea Salt (which I use in pasta water also and on fish due to its briny flavor) I get my salts from a store called homegoods...![]()
